Removing the 'ess' suffix improves the ergonomics without sacrificing clarity.
Since this class is likely to be used more frequently in the future it's worth
some short term pain to fix this now.
Finalization and deallocation actions are a key part of the upcoming
JITLinkMemoryManager redesign: They generalize the existing finalization and
deallocate concepts (basically "copy-and-mprotect", and "munmap") to include
support for arbitrary registration and deregistration of parts of JIT linked
code. This allows us to register and deregister eh-frames, TLV sections,
language metadata, etc. using regular memory management calls with no additional
IPC/RPC overhead, which should both improve JIT performance and simplify
interactions between ORC and the ORC runtime.
The SimpleExecutorMemoryManager class provides executor-side support for memory
management operations, including finalization and deallocation actions.
This support is being added in advance of the rest of the memory manager
redesign as it will simplify the introduction of an EPC based
RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager (since eh-frame registration/deregistration will be
expressible as actions). The new RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager will in turn allow
us to remove older remote allocators that are blocking the rest of the memory
manager changes.
